OUYA ships to backers, hits retailers on June 4 for $99.99

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 02:19 AM PDT

OUYA-console

Things are kicking into high gear with OUYA. After the gaming console was sent out to developers in December, the maker promised that early backers will receive their units on March 28. Right on schedule, we're hearing that the company has begun shipping out the first batch of the pre-ordered units to their owners.

Those who have received a shipping confirmation from OUYA can expect to see the open video game console arriving on their doorsteps in five to ten days. Don't panic if you haven't received any notification, as the team said that it's rolling out the shipments over the next weeks.

It has also been confirmed that retail stores in America, Canada, and the UK will have stocks of the console starting from June 4. Several big names that you can grab OUYA from include Target, Best Buy, Gamestop, and Game. It will also be available online directly from the OUYA website or via Amazon.

The Android-powered device will retail for $99 in the US, while the UK price is tentatively listed at £99.99. According to Engadget, the OUYA package will include the console unit, one wireless controller, power and HDMI cables, and two AA batteries for the controller.

As a refresher, the console unit itself is equipped with a Tegra 3 CPU, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB of onboard storage  – though it’s expandable via USB. The list of content partners include Twitch.tv, iheartradio, TuneIn,  XBMC, Plex, Flixster, and more.

If you're still on the fence about spending your hard-earned money on the OUYA gaming console, check out our guide on the available alternatives.

iFixit pries open HTC One to reveal its aluminum unibody

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 02:08 AM PDT

htc one unibodyThere are those that like using smartphones and there are those that like taking them apart! The iFixit team falls into the latter category and this time they have the HTC One in their sights. It seems that prying the HTC One apart isn’t easy and iFixit has given the HTC One a repairability score of 1 out of 10 (where 10 is easiest to repair). According to the experts the HTC One is very difficult to open without damaging the rear case. But there is some good news, not only does the HTC One look great on the outside, it is impressive on the inside too!

After struggling for over half an hour the 4.7 inch, full HD HTC One finally yielded and revealed its impressive  aluminum unibody. HTC has said that it worked hard to create a phone with a zero gap construction, and the HTC One features a completely seamless body. To do this, the unibody is made using an electro-chemical etching process to achieve the perfect fit and finish!

OK, enough oozing over the unibody. The phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core 1.7 GHz CPU and has 2 GB of DDR2 RAM. The flash memory comes from Samsung and the 4G GSM/UMTS/LTE modem is made by Qualcomm. The final bit of comms magic comes from Broadcom in the form of a single-chip 5G W-Fi 802.11ac MAC/baseband/radio with Bluetooth 4.0+HS & FM receiver.

On the power front the HTC One uses a 3.8 V battery rated at 2300 mAh. For comparison,  the Galaxy S III has a 3.8 V, 2100 mAh battery, while the iPhone 5 has a 3.8 V, 1440 mAh battery. The debate over sealed batteries versus user replaceable batteries is sure to continue especially since the HTC One battery is almost impossible to replace, even by skilled technicians!

Other things to note about the HTC One are its 2.1 MP front-facing camera; its f/2.0 UltraPixel camera powered by a 4 MP backside-illuminated sensor from ST Microelectronics; and its Beats Audio dual-speakers.

What do you think? Does its repairability worry you? Does the impressive unibody compensate for any repairability concerns?

Android-forked Facebook phone coming on April 4 during special media event?

Posted: 29 Mar 2013 02:04 AM PDT

htc-facebook-device

Facebook will host a new special media event on April 4 during which it will show the world its "new home on Android." While the announcement is rather cryptic by itself, we can't but think of that HTC Myst handset that's reportedly being built for Facebook.

This wouldn't be the first Facebook smartphone, but unlike the HTC ChaCha and Salsa that preceded it, this HTC device could run a new Android OS fork specially designed by Facebook:

This will be a deeper, forked version of Android rather than a Facebook-ified version of Sense.

The mythical Facebook phone has been rumored for quite some time now, but every time it had to answer about its mobile plans, the social network denied that it's working on such a product. Considering that Facebook is present on probably all smartphones out there, no matter what platform they'd use, having a Facebook phone in shops doesn't sound like a necessity, but it looks like that's the way Facebook is heading.

Not to mention that Facebook has its own, photo, calling and messaging apps that could further help users stay within Facebook when using their current smartphones. But that may not be enough for the social giant that wants to meet the profit demands of its investors.

From a different point of view, Facebook seems more and more interested in taking on Google in different other niches, mobile included. Google hit Facebook with Google+, and now Facebook seems ready to be hitting back with its first steps in search but also smartphones. And like Amazon, instead of designing a new OS from the ground up, it could simply fork Android into something that suits its needs. Obviously, the forked Android OS will integrate Facebook's mobile apps, but it will be interesting to see what kind of app store access the device will have to offer.

Remember though that we're just speculating at this point, using the available information about Facebook existing products, as we have no solid information on what's coming in just a few days.

HTC-ChaCha-Facebook

Remember the ChaCha?

One report does say that Facebook and HTC are actively working on an ad campaign to promote the new product. Instead of focusing on its hardware or software, the companies are rather targeting the user directly, as 9to5 Google notes.

According to people familiar with the development of the marketing campaign for the Facebook/HTC phone, the advertisements are designed to focus on the potential user of the device, not on the hardware or software. As a nod to this phone being a much expanded version of the Facebook application found on iOS and standard Android devices, one of the tag-lines for the device is "more than just an app".

We have no details on actual hardware features, but the device is said to be "competitive with the current mobile device landscape," and sources that had access to the device describe it as an iPhone-like handset complete with Home button at the center flacked by "horizontal function keys." Previous rumors say that the device could sport a 4.3-inch display, but the publication says the handset will be "about the size of an iPhone 5," thus featuring a 4-inch display.

Other rumored specs for the handset, also presented in older articles, include a 1.5GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, 5-megapixel camera and 1.6-megapixel front-facing shooter.

Pricing and launch details aren't available at this time, but Facebook and HTC are said to be in negotiations with at least a couple of carriers. Is AT&T one of them? If recent FCC documents are to be believed, and the HTC Myst is indeed the Facebook phone, then we could see the carrier launch a Facebook phone later this year.

We'll thoroughly cover the April 4 Facebook events for you, at which point we'll have more answers for your questions. Meanwhile, let us know whether you'd be interested in such a Facebook phone, or you'd rather stick with actual Android.

Facebook Messenger free calls now available outside of US and UK, too

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 09:11 PM PDT

Facebook Messenger

Facebook made quite some buzz when it quietly launched free calling through the Facebook Messenger app for iOS and Android. While initially available in the US and Canada, Facebook recently rolled out voice calling in the UK, too, with promise to launch in more countries. If you’re living elsewhere, you would be pleased to learn that Facebook Messenger calling is being rolled out to other countries, as well.

This came as a pleasant surprise while I was chatting with a friend last night. I saw the “free call” button and I know just what it meant. The option can be accessed by pressing the “i” button to get more information about your Facebook contact. The app will tell you if that contact can be reached via voice call, or if the person is not reachable via VoIP. This is indicated by either a greyed-out button or one with a slashed-out phone icon. “Your friend can’t receive calls right now,” it will say. This means your contact is not using the Facebook Messenger app on iOS or Android, or the contact is currently not connected.

Facebook Messenger places calls either through WiFi or your data plan, so it also warns you that it might consume your data plan and you might incur costs if you go over your allocation or if you’re on a pay-as-you-go service. Also, you can only call friends who are also using the Facebook Messenger app and not the full Facebook app itself. There’s no need to update the Facebook Messenger app, as the feature is activated on the server — unless you have a very old version.

Interestingly enough, Facebook has partnered with several providers around the world — especially in emerging markets — to offer free connectivity via Facebook Messenger. I wonder how this would pan out, especially given that the free Facebook messages and calls might eat into these carriers’ regular SMS and voice revenue. I also wonder if this works for international calls, as well, which would be the ideal scenario, given that VoIP players like Skype, Google Talk, Viber and a host of other messaging services, don’t limit calling to within specific locales. Does this signal the end of telephony as we know it? Is this the Facebook “phone” that everyone had been predicting for the past few years?

If you haven’t tried out Facebook Messenger yet, it’s available via Google Play and the iTunes App Store. Facebook has not quite made an announcement yet, but do expect calling functionality to roll out in your locale soon, if it’s not already active.

Action Launcher Pro version 1.5 for Android adds easy access to widgets

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 06:51 PM PDT

Action Launcher PRO
Have you ever wanted to easily access the widgets on your smartphone’s home screen without having to go through the trouble of actually touching the widgets yourself? No? Well, you will be able to do just that anyway, thanks to the latest version of Action Launcher PRO for Android.

Action Launcher PRO for Android is now on version 1.5, and according to the official release notes, it comes with a number of new useful features. The updated software now fully supports 10-inch tablets (including the addition of a dock), works in landscape mode by default for certain devices, allows hiding of text labels for items on the home screen, and boasts a brand new feature that might change the way you interact with your device’s home screen forever.

The newest Action Launcher PRO feature is called “Shutters” and its primary function is to let users access widgets through simple swipes performed on a regular launch icon. Now, instead of actually interacting with the widgets directly, they can be accessed through their standard launch icons and will only appear after users swipe a certain way. This will certainly help save space on the home screen and might just help users find more creative ways to fiddle with their phones and tablets.

The app is already out and available for download on Google Play, and you’ll be able to find it on the source link below. If you’d like to learn more about the most recent changes to Action Launcher PRO, then feel free to watch this embedded YouTube video.

Sprint Epic 4G Touch can now be upgraded to Jelly Bean through Kies

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 06:29 PM PDT

Sprint Epic 4G Touch update
In a surprise announcement, Sprint has now revealed that users of the Epic 4G Touch smartphone can go and upgrade their handsets to a newer version of the Android operating system. To be more specific, the Sprint Epic 4G Touch smartphone can now be upgraded to Jelly Bean, most likely version 4.1, and those who wish to do so on their own phones can get the said update through Samsung Kies.

In the case of most other smartphone models, upgrading to later version of the Android operating system means only going through the Settings menu to initiate an over-the-air (OTA) software download. However, for the Sprint Epic 4G Touch, using Samsung Kies is not only recommended, but pretty much required by Sprint itself. According to information from the carrier regarding the software update, it is “due to file size.”

In any case, this Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update is surely going to be good news for all users of the Sprint Epic 4G Touch smartphone. That is, unless, those users have lost their USB cables somehow and can’t find replacements. In which case, they won’t get in on the update.

Best Buy Samsung stores will be available in time for Galaxy S4

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 05:51 PM PDT

Best Buy Samsung Long gone are the days when only Apple would get special sections of stores to demo its products, and a serious clue is the fact that Best Buy Samsung stores will be established by the time the Galaxy S4 makes its way into the retailer’s stocks.

The battle between the two giants isn’t taking place only on the market share field; even retail space is something to be contested between them. Samsung is making a huge step, because Best Buy locations will also have Samsung stores, along with the Apple stores it already has, as geek.com has found out.

The move will happen in a first batch of high-traffic Best Buy locations by the time the Samsung Galaxy S4 will be available, and the same source says that two aisles in the mobile departments will be cleared to make room for the new, Samsung-branded stores; also, employees who will work there will go through special trainings.

Of course, not only the S4 will be demoed in said store areas – all important Samsung tablets and smartphones will be available there, and, while this only happens for a number of high-traffic stores, the same source says that all Best Buy locations will end up having a Best Buy Samsung store later this year.

What do you think about this idea?

Samsung Galaxy S4 roadshow schedule to happen in Canada starting April 8

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 05:32 PM PDT

Samsung Galaxy S4 roadshow Canada
It has been two full weeks since the Samsung Galaxy S4 was first officially unveiled to the general public, and it seems like the excitement surrounding it has not subsided at all. Samsung knows that it would be foolish to not help keep the hype around its latest flagship smartphone alive, and so over in Canada, it has decided to go on a roadshow promoting the said product to the local carriers.

According to an internal memo supplied to the guys over at Mobile Syrup, the Galaxy S4 is set to star in demonstrations that will begin for Canadian telco employees starting this April 8th. It will go on all the way until April 26th, at which time it is speculated that the handset will already be fully available for purchase.

There’s currently no indication of when the Samsung Galaxy S4 will really be made available — or when first in Canada — but a mid-April or end of April release wouldn’t be too far-fetched. And that means that it will be arriving very soon.

Exynos 5 Octa confirmed to have LTE, lack of availability reportedly due to supply shortages

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 02:45 PM PDT

Exynos 5 OctaAccording to the SamsungExynos twitter page and contrary to previous beliefs, the Exynos 5 Octa supports LTE and all 20 bands.

In other words, the Exynos chip supports the same thing the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 does. So, why isn’t the Exynos 5 Octa in all Galaxy S4 devices? SamMobile reports that Samsung wasn’t able to produce the Octa processor in time, which is why some regions are getting the Snapdragon 600.

Just a couple of weeks ago, Samsung announced that the Exynos 5 Octa only began mass production in Q2 of this year. In other words, the Korean tech giant didn’t have enough time to prepare the Octa for all of its Galaxy S4 models. As a result of this, 70% of the first 10 million Galaxy S4′s will be running a Snapdragon 600 as opposed to Samsung’s own Exynos 5 Octa.

Hopefully Samsung will be able to get supply issues sorted out sooner than later.

New Hitachi Maxell Li-Ion battery increases battery power by 60% without taking up extra space

Posted: 28 Mar 2013 01:51 PM PDT

battery

Imagine getting 3,200 mAh of capacity out of something the size of a 2,000 mAh battery. That’s exactly what Hitachi Maxell’s new battery technology can do. This isn’t the first time we’ve been promised battery technology that can revolutionize the mobile world, but what sets Maxell’s new tech apart is that it really exists and isn’t just a theoretical technology.

Besides delivering 60% more battery capacity, Hitachi’s new process also is said to slow down the battery degradation process. The end result is that batteries won’t just stay charged longer, they will last longer, too. No this isn’t black magic at work, it’s science.

For those wondering how the technology was discovered, Hitachi Maxell first set out to monitor the movements of Li-ions in real-time. Using this data, Hitachi Maxell was able to develop a battery structure that can resolve stagnation of Lithium ions. It is this process that allows them to pack more power into a smaller form factor, while also helping improve the length of the battery’s lifespan.

What does this all mean for the consumer? Let’s face it, modern octa-core processors, Full HD displays and other high-end smarpthone features take a huge toll on your battery. Right now, manufacturers have two choices: give us awful battery life or add extra bulk to their phones in order to give you the battery life you need to make it through a workday. With Hitachi Maxell’s tech, we don’t have to sacrifice the thinness of the phone to get the capacity we need.

Hitachi Maxell has no word on when their technology will start shipping into actual devices, but here’s to hoping we see such tech sometime later this year.
